Volcanoes

A long chain of volcanoes traverses Anatolia from SW to NE. It starts in the Karaman and Karapinar regions, and includes many small
cinder cones, then continues east with andesitic volcanoes of increasing size towards NE: Cappadocia is topped by the highest volcano of
central Anatolia, Erciyes Dagi (3917 m.a.s.l.), 20km south of Kayseri (Mons Argeus and Cesarea in Roman times). The chain finally reaches
the Armenian-Iranian border forming the highest peak in Turkey, Mount Ararat.
